How to find Pre-foreclosures

Imol Hoh
Posted

Hello, im looking to invest in pre-foreclosures, probates, tax liens, etc and wondering how to attain those lists. I've been to and called several counties and have asked for these documents but have been looked at weirdly and also have been told no. They all tell me you need a first and last name. Is this true? Im looking to invest in the Ohio area such as Cinci, Cleveland, Ohio and etc. Thank you!

As Bob and Dwayne have pointed out, there are no pre-foreclosure lists at your county courthouse or circuit court. Here's how the foreclosure process works in Cuyahoga County:

And here's a link to all properties scheduled for auction on 5/31:

If you're targeting pre-foreclosures I suggest you bookmark these pages and drive by these properties and/or send a letter/text message (skip trace). There are auction dates scheduled out to 6/27.

Good luck Imol!
